Description: The current channel number of the frequency output by the RF synthesizer
What is dot11CurrentChannelNumber?
This object represents the current radio frequency channel (numbered 0-99) that the wireless transceiver is actively using to transmit and receive data. The RF (radio frequency) synthesizer generates signals on this channel, which must be in range acceptable for the device's regulatory domain. Wireless network administrators monitor and adjust this setting to optimize coverage, avoid interference with neighboring networks, and comply with frequency allocation rules.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.4.4.1.2 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11CurrentChannelNumber
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.2.840.10036.4.4.1.2.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> IEEE802dot11-MIB::dot11CurrentChannelNumber.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.2.840.10036.4.4.1.2.1 i <value>
